I said blacks can be prejudiced against whites. But an 'ism' implies an institutionalized system. There is no systematic of oppression of whites by blacks. Blacks have no power. This is merely a question of semantics.
Let me just say though that the racism of Asians towards blacks was exemplified in the Rodney King riots.

Fuck sake.
An institutionalized system is only one of the things the "ism" at the end of "racism" could imply, it'd be a desperate grab for straws to think that it only means the one thing that helps support your argument, so much so that it overrides the definition stated on basically every published dictionary on earth.
This is some black lives matter bullshit. -

Lol. I'm being a sophist. You're using the common definition where racism is a form of bigotry. But racism has a political meaning as well.

Next he will reference make believe fairy tale terms like reverse racism and White Privilege. Never take Gameboy seriously. He knows nothing about the World's religions and even less about politics and societal injustices.

But Asians are notoriously racist against blacks.
No, they're not. There is no Asian KKK or Stormfront. Slurs like negro or n!gger were invented by wheit people. Asians didn't enslave blacks for hundreds of years. Asians don't go on shooting rampages to kill all-black people.

When I was production manager for a Taiwanese corporation I hired the first black male ever employed at the company. I was called into the Chinese owner's office the next day and was strongly reprimanded and was told in no uncertain terms that I was to hire NO black males in the warehouse.
The Chinese slur for black is "hak gwai" - meaning burnt.
And I guess you've never heard what Koreans in LA say about blacks.

He's using those as examples of the racism of Asians towards blacks. Totally not the same especially in degree of oppression or severity. He's only talking about prejudice. They are far from the same by a huge margin.

Yes the racism and oppression that whites have exerted over blacks is far beyond any prejudice some Asians have shown.
AZN made the point that Asians have never enslaved blacks the way whites have. His response? He once knew an Asian who didn't want to work with black guys and that the Koreans are mean to blacks. Those are poor examples to imply that Asians are just as bad as whites in terms of racial oppression of blacks.
